Postal ballot packs will be sent to electors from around two weeks before polling day.
Electors who registered close to the registration deadline will be issued with their postal ballot packs once their names have been added to the final register update on the fifth working day before the poll. Electors who applied for their postal vote close to the application deadline will be issued with their postal ballot packs once their application has been determined.
Electors will then mark their ballot paper, complete their postal voting statement by providing their signature and date of birth, and return them to the local Returning Officer (local RO) before the close of poll (i.e. 10pm on polling day).
Candidates, election agents and postal voting agents are not entitled to attend the issue of postal votes.
